Lost, confused

Floating between two worlds

I hear the chorus of voices

Beckoning from the heavens

Promises of nirvana

She smiled
as she felt the coolness
of the driving rain 
as it cascaded over her body 
during the heat of the day 

She looked angelic
Pure as sin
As the darkness 
Griped her heart
And clawed
At her soul

The children play
All sweetness and light 
With candy coated breath 
They squel with delight 
About the secrets they keep 

We follow
ancient paths 
blindly 
To find life's lessons 
of days gone by

Forever he
Will sit
In between
My heart
And soul

Dark sadness
engulfs her
Like a force of nature 
Madness sets in
As she realizes
how really lost
she is

Sharp teeth
Pierced her flesh
Down to her soul
As the blood ran red
Down her white
Alabaster skin

Trusting doesn't come easy
When life is full of 
Broken promises
Broken dreams

A low growl
pulls me out
of slumbers dream
To realize
you are here with me

I ran
on instinct
to you

Your words
Your actions
are breaking me down
Changing me
Rearranging me
Forever 

I hide
During the dark hours
Knowing you would be able to see 
the real me
Naked
Alone
Afraid

His voice calmly
repeated my twisted tale
shaking his head
All the lies, horror, abuse 
I felt he would bring back
my sanity
